2014 Topps For Mayor Baseball Wall Art

2014 Topps For Mayor Baseball Wall Art is a series of retro-minded pieces intended to decorate the walls of a collector's office, room or wherever else the rest of the house might be happy to see them. Featuring players from the past, the set's design is based on a pair of test issues from 1967.

Available as an exclusive on Topps.com, the 2014 Topps For Mayor Wall Art set has a total of 20 prints, all of Hall of Famers from the '50s through to the '80s. Nolan Ryan, Reggie Jackson, George Brett and Yogi Berra are among those in the series. Each is numbered to 99.

Individual prints have an initial price of $49.99 each. Complete sets are also available $900. Sets also come with an exclusive bonus piece that's numbered to 10. The bonus print set, which has a slightly modified design, has just five players.

They are being offered through Topps through March 31, which coincides with Opening Day.

Each 2014 Topps For Mayor Wall Art piece is printed on stock similar to what's used with Topps Heritage. Prints are over-sized, measuring 11x17. They will be mailed flat to prevent any damage.

The series is based on a similar design used within the 1967 Topps Pirates Stickers and 1967 Topps Red Sox Stickers sets, a pair of test issues. Both of these 33-card test issues used several designs. "For Mayor" was found on one card in each set, Roberto Clemente for the Pirates and the Red Sox's Carl Yastrzemski.
